I was in the ER for severe GI pain and I had Covid in early June, so doctor made my meet and greet appointment with Dr Mumtaz was a “video” call. Dr. Mumtaz took his time explaining what labs and specimens he needed to continue my care. My double procedure was scheduled and explained in detail. After the procedure Dr Mumtaz came to my cubicle and explained what was found and the direction of my treatment after biopsies were examined.

Disclosures

Shaham S. Mumtaz, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
